1974 Ducati 750GT

FOR SALE 1974 Ducati 750GT $31,500.00

The Ducati 750GT was the Italian companies first road-going V twin or L twin, to be more precise given the 90 degree angle between cylinders. It’s a slightly “detuned” version of the 750SS with a more standard seating position. It has the iconic round case bevel motor that is truly a work of art. And, the exhaust note through the Conti silencers is mechanical music. Because of its relatively short production run, 1971 through 1974, only 4133  750GTs were sold, making this a rare and collectable bike.  

Offered for sale here, this 1974Ducati 750GT. Engine number 755331 frame 755363, with 12,400 original miles. That  has had the same owner since 1985. Over 150 hours were spent on a professional ground up restoration. The frame and chassis parts have been powder coated. The tank, fenders and side covers have been repainted to a beautiful candy orange as close to original as could be achieved using modern 3 stage paint. This bike was not a ratty barn find, it ran before it was disassembled and had the original lead seal on the crankcase bolts. It had been poorly painted in the past and was not very pretty but, ran strong. I rebuilt the top end, resurfacing valves and seats. I honed the cylinders and had custom gapless rings made for it. The cases were split for resealing, all engine and transmission bearings were cleaned and inspected. All shafts were shimmed to within factory specs. All gaskets and seals were replaced. The cases were chemically cleaned and the covers were hand polished.

The carburetors were ultrasonically cleaned and rebuilt, as were the original petcocks. The original Radaelli rims were stripped and chrome plated, then relaced with stainless spokes. All wheel bearings were replaced, and Pirelli Sport Demon tires were installed. The original Scarab caliper was rebuilt but, a modern Brembo master cylinder was installed for reliability. It has an updated solid state regulator/rectifier. The instrument panel housing was replaced but the original clocks were untouched and work perfectly. Original Aprilia turn signals were sourced and installed. Original head pipes and crossover were re-plated as was all other chrome bits on the bike. The Conti mufflers were in excellent condition and only required polishing. The other departure from stock is the high beam/horn/turn signal switch was replaced with a non original part, again for reliability. There was no expense spared on this restoration. The bike has a clean Illinois title. Less than 10 sorting miles were put on this bike since it’s completion.

FOR SALE 1990 Mille GT $3000.00 obo (SOLD!)

One owner 1990 Mille GT, I would consider this in excellent mechanical condition and give it a 7 out of 10 on appearance. The tires are 4 years old, in 2018 at 9568 miles I did a major service on it. It’s got 10057 miles on it now. That’s a Rodsmith custom tail section on it. Nice runner. Call 708-715-0360 if you have any questions. This bike needs nothing but, a new home

FOR SALE Custom 1975 Moto Guzzi 850T. (SOLD!)

Unlike other custom/café builds, this bike is built from the crankshaft out. I started with a 1975 850T, this is the first Guzzi big twin with an oil filter . I upgraded to 89.5 mm Venolia forged pistons, cast iron cylinder liners. Displacement is 977 ccs and compression ratio is 10.5:1 The heads are tumble ported and matched to 36 mm Dellorto carbs. I’ve added a P3 cam and a vintage Bub Hyper exhaust system that has been ceramic coated. I updated to a 10 spring 6 pound flywheel. The crank and components are dynamically balanced. This bike puts out 95 HP at the crank. Of course, the trans and rear drive have been thoroughly gone through with all necessary upgrades and adjustments. It has a custom wire harness with a solid state regulator rectifier and an EarthX lithium ion battery. I’ve logged nearly 100 hours on this build.

The frame, swing arm, triple clamps, wheels and hubs are powder coated. The Marzocchi shocks have been rebuilt and powder coated to match the frame. Progressive springs, FAC dampers and new Brembo calipers up front for great handling and stopping power.The fuel tank comes from Tank Works in Scotland but, the rest of the metal fabrication was done by the legendary Craig Rodsmith.This is an awesome bike to ride, fast and fun.

$13,500.00 or best offer.

PREVIOUS CUSTOMS AND RESTORATIONS

2000 Moto Guzzi Jackal Bobber for sale. This is a very cool version of an under rated bike. The Jackal was the base model of the Californias. This particular bike was left in the basement parking garage where it did not fair too well. I decided it deserved some special treatment. The frame was stripped and powder coated. I soda blasted the flaking paint from the engine and trans and re-painted it with VHT engine paint. I used the wheels, brakes, suspension, controls and dash panel form a 2003 Stone chassis with 3 miles on it. I installed a set of Centauro bars and risers, and fish tail pipes. The head pipes are ceramic coated, the rear fender is lowered, a vintage tombstone tail light was added to complete the look. The bike came with a power commander installed and I used K&N filters to help it breath and now, this “Goose” HONKS! The latest addition to this bike is an awesome GPS speedometer.
